Mirror
By Jeannie Baker
Two cultures, two different stories. A picture book about two boys, two families and two totally different lifestyles. It follows one boy living in a city in Australia and another in Morocco, North Africa.
A unique book, in which is completely wordless, shows how two cultures looking totally different and being different can and will have similarities to connect to each other no matter where they live.
A great book that allows students to see and interpret every day life in other cultures and how they can relate it to their own life and culture. Without words, there are many ideas, understandings, concepts and meaning in which the author was able to portray just through her artwork.
A true picture book.
